Hyprfire

Hyprfire is an Australian cybersecurity software company founded in 2021, focused on Network Detection and Response (NDR). The company's technology is based on research from Curtin University, where founder and CTO Stefan Prandl discovered that natural statistical laws could be applied to computer network traffic to identify malicious activity based on behavioral patterns. Hyprfire's primary product is Firebug, a Network Threat Hunting as a Service (NTHaaS) solution. Firebug is designed to be lightweight in deployment and generates actionable alerts within hours of setup. Rather than producing large volumes of alerts, the product delivers a small number of high-priority, high-fidelity events to IT and security teams on a daily and weekly basis, intended to identify precursors to network attacks. The solution is positioned to fill the gap between perimeter and endpoint security tools by providing internal network visibility. It targets organizations of all sizes, including those without large dedicated security teams, as it does not require additional personnel to operate. Clients include government departments, health providers, critical infrastructure operators, manufacturing firms, and venues management organizations. Key product characteristics: - Lightweight deployment with fast time-to-value - Behavioral analysis of network traffic using statistical methods - Actionable, low-noise alerting for IT and security teams - Scalable threat hunting capabilities Hyprfire has received an Accelerating Commercialisation Grant from AusIndustry's Entrepreneurs' Programme and has been recognized as a winner in the Network Cyber Security Business of the Year category. The company is based in Western Australia and serves both national and international clients.
